Try putting them in the seed file with a ! in front of the network.

Subject: [nv-l] How to permanently set nodes to unmanged state

I have several remote access subnets (a few dial, some vpn) where remote users are allocated DHCP addresses.  I do not want to manage these nodes and set them to unmanaged - but Netview keeps setting them back to managed (and inevitably changes their state to down) - I suspect because it detects the connection as new (different MAC address perhaps) even though the IPs are the same.  Is there way to permanently set a block of addresses to unmanaged?

 

Netview 7.1.4
